I gave up on to-do apps as well. I have a text file I started in 2017. It's on my desktop and always open in a text editor. I just add the following at the top for a new entry:

20250811 - Core API - deploy to production 20250810 - Customer X - call about upgrading to new version

Every day I move items I have not yet done to the top of the list. Order in the list is the priority.

Old or done tasks naturally fall down the list.
